Please help me, I’m going to get a macom bra but would like to have a few others! Duno what’s best I’ve heard asda sports bras are good, asda post surgery bra, marks and spencers etc. What do you lovely ladies recommend? Four weeks to go!
Thanks!

Id say dont bother with the asda post surgery bra, mine hurt me straight after surgery and I had to wear cotton wool under the bra all the time, defo go for sports bras, im 13 months post op now
Plus only get the macom if you have money to to fizzle on one, theres really no need for one, many of us have coped without it. I’d 100% recommend lonsdale womens sports bras, really comfy
Heres the link for lonsdale ones at sportsdirect.com if you wanna have a look http://www.sportsdirect.com/Products/Default.aspx?DescriptionFilter=lonsdale%20sports%20bra Cheap, plus you can use them to go to the gym after your all healed!
To be honest cheaper are better as you end up buying a few trying to get the best size and find one thats comfy. my best ones so far have been the 2 pk m and s sports bras.
and this one from m and s £14 but no seams so its so comfy. your nipples get sore on the seams of sports bras so use a round cotton wool pad on your nipple before they get a chance to get sore.
Thanks girls! I have no idea what size to get either! I’m usually a 32 so should I get a 34 cos of swelling? Also did u need a few diff sizes as they changed over the days/weeks?
Thanks again girls

ive got one from next £16 and one from tesco £6. havent had my op yet so cant comment on them but they seem really good. i was tempted to get a macom too xx
I’ve ordered a macom today! Had my pre-op earlier and the nurse recommended the macom, so I’m gonna get that, and then a few cheaper ones! x
Oyh next I forgot bout them. Might have a look on there too! Haha ill end up with one of each :p xx
char I would get a 34 just until the swelling goes down.
me too hun, im starting a collection and taking back what doesnt fit xx
i got 34’s where as im normally a 32 but dont want any rubbing xx
Ok 34 it is! Whens ur op kat? I was recommended a macom by surgeon so ill get one of them, then ill have a look at the lonsdale asda and marks and spencer sports bras, and maybe next! Xx
Trust me the mocom is the best one iv tryed the zip up m ans sporys bra this was alfull the asda was painfull and pointless the two pack m and s bras they are crap too theu dont have a wide enough band and ride up which is painfull iv ordered the john lewis bra to try all the above bras i returned today and im 4 days post op i was 32 m in mamcom or 36 in others x x hope this saves you time and money hun
With sports bras do they come in D, DD, E etc? I have no idea what to get I’m 32a/b ish and gettin 380 or 410 cc overs. Maybe DD? Xx
Bloody touch screen hope that is legible *macom *sports
heather im like u ive spent a small fortune on bras that ill never where again lol.
My pc today said to get a smooth sports bra with wide straps. Don’t want any seams and she said some surgeons are now not recommending the Macom as they apply too much pressure? I’m gunna have a look around on Friday. My ba is next Friday the 9th. I’m a 34a having 380cc unders so my pc said to get 34d and 34dd xx
char mines next thurs, my next one is so comfy and the tesco ones are too. really wide straps and smooth. let me know if u find another good one. i didnt really like the look of the m&s ones xx
I’ve got a Macom, a couple of sports bras from
asda, a couple of soft night bras and I want the zip front M&S one but once im done x
